Follow Your Lead Lyrics

I got b****** on my d***, I don't want em near
Closet full of brand names I don't wanna wear
Everybody got advice that I don't wanna hear
World in your palm but you don't wanna share
Still I'm following you...
Are you leading me with a weapon drawn
Co-dependent on her but got me in bed alone
You say if you love it let it go, nothing set in stone
Plus every rock they throw I use as a stepping stone
Got questions, say the answer's better left unknown
Though I may not never see you I should know you never gone
So I break the mirror, cause everything it's showing me is wrong
Grab your hand and go along, cause I'm following you
Say I should be pleased, what if I'm saddened
Always say I been through worse, what if I haven't
But if that holds true, here's the lesson
If you keep your head down you might miss out on the blessing, SING

I don't need the money, I don't need the fame
I don't need the lifestyle, I don't need the pain
I don't need the clubs, I don't need the cars
None of that really matters to me
I don't want the bad b****, I don't want the strain
I don't want the highs, enough s*** on the brain
I don't want whatever's gonna help me be insane
I just want to follow your lead

(Verse 2)
You saying follow my lead, follow follow my lead
Brought me to my knees, he must wanna holla at me
When the world feels like swallowin me
When every decision's costly, and I don't got a dollar on me
Check it, I don't wanna pretend, I don't wanna live a lie
I don't wanna be judged, don't wanna be criticized
I don't wanna talk, there's nothing I want to say
The more I let em get to know me
The more they just run away
And that, must be a way saying we should stay together
I know how to f*** it up more than I can make it better
I figured folk around me would learn to take it better
Instead of try to change me, I've been this way forever
Time will reveal more will be shown, you pushed it
I thought the door closed on it's own
But uh, nevermind what caused it, living a dream
Nothing in this world powerful enough to pause it, SING!
I don't need the money, I don't need the fame
I don't need the lifestyle, I don't need the pain
I don't need the clubs, I don't need the cars
None of that really matters to me
I don't want the bad b****, I don't want the strain
I don't want the highs, enough s*** on the brain
I don't want whatever's gonna help me be insane
I just want to follow your lead

(Verse 3)
They sayin follow my lead, follow follow my lead
Cig in my mouth prescription bottle by me
And even when I think you might be making a mistake
I may not know the destination but I make it there safe
When I feel like I can't get weaker
You always come and make a cameo or feature
I'm good with my insanity and fevers
Cause Pac's lookin from heaven sayin they ain't understand me neither
A lot of times you leave me exposed
And laugh at me still thinking I could be in control
Help me weather the storm, altogether I ain't know him
Though I always disagree you ain't never been wrong
Listen, I was feelin nearly unstoppable
Now I'm facing what appears to be impossible
Feeling unimportant enough to have to bother you
But I'm down here alone n****, all I got is you
I don't need the money, I don't need the fame
I don't need the lifestyle, I don't need the pain
I don't need the clubs, I don't need the cars
None of that really matters to me
I don't want the bad b****, I don't want the strain
I don't want the highs, enough s*** on the brain
I don't want whatever's gonna help me be insane
I just want to follow your lead

(Verse 4 - Joell Ortiz)
I can't fit it all in a 16
That night that I was tipsy, and all them bullets just missed me
The day they rushed the block, I was strapped but they didn't frisk me
Why I ain't f*** that stripper
Don't ask, and now she's sick b
The drop on that jewelry store for 50′s
And I backed out last minute, like nah that s*** look risky
One of my mans dead, the other in Poughkeepsie
Another one in the feds, he'll be there till he's 60
I want to thank you for the blessings and the gifts
And the lessons, and the messages they left, I get the drift
f*** the cheddar or whatever, it don't measure up to this
I mean never did I ever not remember you exist
When I hop up out my bed, hands together and I wish
You knew it was from the heart, inside my chest you let it tick
I love you from the soul with every spiritual molecule
f*** Twitter, all a n**** gotta do is follow you

I don't need the money, I don't need the fame
I don't need the lifestyle, I don't need the pain
I don't need the clubs, I don't need the cars
None of that really matters to me
I don't want the bad b****, I don't want the strain
I don't want the highs, enough s*** on the brain
I don't want whatever's gonna help me be insane
I just want to follow your lead
